Product details

The textbook "The Entropy Principle" by André Thess offers a comprehensive and precise explanation of the concept of entropy in thermodynamics. It is aimed at both undergraduate and advanced students and presents a clear definition of entropy that does not rely on problematic terms such as temperature or heat. The authors Elliott Lieb and Jakob Yngvason have developed a new formulation of thermodynamics based on the concept of adiabatic accessibility, presenting entropy as the mathematical foundation of the second law of thermodynamics. This book makes the Lieb-Yngvason theory accessible to students and includes seven illustrative examples that explain the application of the entropy principle in practical scientific and engineering problems.
